Police search for armed and dangerous man

Colorado Springs police are looking for an armed and dangerous man who wielded a semi-automatic handgun and apparently threatened to kill several people Thursday night.

The suspect identified by police as 23-year-old JuJaun Vinson left the area in the 900 block of Bennett Avenue in a white Ford Crown Victoria around 9:30 p.m. Police rushed to the scene in southeast Colorado Springs and were investigating the disturbance when the Ford came back.

Officers chased the car and eventually backed off when traffic became heavy and the driver of the Crown Victoria drove using "dangerous actions."

Vinson is wanted on suspicion of felony menacing to go along with a previous outstanding warrant.

Anyone with information that could help with the investigation should call police at 444-7000.
